Student

Be prepared as a regular college student would be and make the best out of opportunities and decisions at Stillman college.

Clubs and Activities

I'm not really in any clubs but there are clubs on campus. The activities are fun to attend.

Food and Dining

Some days are better than other days.

Dorm Life

Roulhac Hall is an all girls hall. It is nice but You share a bathroom with your roommate and the closets separate each side so you have your privacy. The walls are thin so you will here other ladies at times... or maybe all the time. You have lobby visitation.

Great for these types of students

Stillman is a great for students who are interested in a one on one relationship with teachers and getting help from teachers. It could also be for people who don't really want the huge campus exspirence.

Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus

Chapel on thursdays which is when students attend an informational or a church service.

Campus Safety

Campus safety is good the officers are nice and when it comes down to safety they are definitely caring and alert.

Greek Life

The Greeks on campus interesting.

What to do for fun

Stillman college is right around the corner from the University of Alabama so its a lot of stuff to do in the area but the school doesn't have many activities that go on that "all" students really go to and enjoy. Besides that the basket ball games and baseball games are fun.

In three sentences

If you are looking for a school that is small and has plenty of one on one with teachers if you need help during office hours for help , Stillman is for you.

Bang for the buck

It is worth the money if the degree you want to persue is available ! Do your research and check before attending schools!

Academic Rigor

The academic rigor has an average standard. It's college so teachers won't make you come to class but they will push you to study and do your best in class.

Most people here are here on scholarship, so the school is basically broke.

What to do for fun

Hay center parties are fun at the beginning of the year. Homecoming game day is the best.

Food and Dining

The cafe is terrible. What a waste of money to spend on a food plan. They will literally give you beans and rice for dinner that's it. There are no other lanes open, or are there any other dining options since they closed the food court down. Every student usually ends up eating out every night.

Dorm Life

The dorms are not the best. When you move in make sure you literally scrub everything because the people before you might have not been so clean. There is mold in the bathrooms, not matter how hard you scrub, it always comes back.

Academic Rigor

You can past every class with an A if you try. It's not that hard.

In three sentences

Stillman College is what you make out of it. It could be be the worst four years of your life, or the best. Choose wisely.

Campus Safety

Campus Safety is the top priority here. The campus security are always there for the students to make sure that every one is out of harms way and that we know we can feel safe on campus. This is the only place I feel safe walking during the night by myself.

Clubs and Activities

There are countless clubs and activities on Stillman's campus ranging from SGA to the modeling troop. Members in each organization provides great school spirit and are very welcoming. Also, the busier you keep yourself in college, the better.

Great for these types of students

Stillman College is great for all types of students. Whether you are shy or if you are very outgoing you will find your place here. Stillman embrace diversity and uniqueness throughout this campus.

Share any unusual traditions or locations on campus

Unusual traditions on Stillman Campus for me is Chapel. During Chapel, you get a view on not only a christian perspective on religion you will also get to hear someone that practices Judaism or Buddhism. Another strange tradition at Stillman are the Freshman ceremonies you must attend where you will be honored as an official Stillman Woman or Man. You will have to attend to get a full understanding.

Bang for the buck

I would have to say that Stillman is a very costly college, however, it is worth the bang for the buck. They provide great leadership skills and work ethnic skills that will later help in a successful future. The small student to ratio allows you to really get a better understanding in your classes which will be very beneficial in the long run.

What to do for fun

Stillman college provides plenty of activities for students such as band, choir, track, volleyball, fraternities and sororities (greek and non-greek). Stillman also provides us with monthly parties at the Hay Center, which is also known as Club Hay. Stillman is what you make it and with the right friends and tools this can be the best experience in your life!

Food and Dining

Two words: Chapel Chicken. Every Thursday the cafe provides the students with the best home-cooked meal that consists of friend chicken, greens, macaroni and cheese, and yams. We also have the food court that serves the best deli sandwiches, hot wings, and smoothies on this earth. Also, for the veggie-lovers, every Monday the cafe ladies like to honor you with meatless Mondays.

Dorm Life

Stillman does not allow co-ed visitation unless you have a 3.5 gpa and stay in Wynn or Knox Hall. However, besides the co-ed visitation deal, Rouhlac Hall is very comfortable and you are able to have privacy via your roommate. Also, the staff and resident assistants are very friendly and will help in making you stay more accustomed to your taste.

Academic Rigor

The academic rigor at Stillman College is very intense. The faculty and staff strive to push their students into becoming something greater and expect nothing less. Staying focused is key.

Tips for prospective students

My tips for prospective student is to be responsible and be on top of your game. This is not high school and you will find that the competition for success has become way more competitive. Work hard now so that you can do what you want later.

In three sentences

Stillman is a small college with a great staff that will help you on your collegiate journey. The vibe here is very family oriented and people will strive to help uplift you. Stillman is a great place to attend if you want to be successful in life.

Tips for prospective students

Take care of all your paperwork as soon as you receive it, and do not wait until the last minute to return it back to the school.
